Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 2 years old. At first, he said it hurt when he swallowed something. I noticed that his voice was a bit hoarse when he spoke, and he also had a low fever. Please ask: How to diagnose and treat tonsillitis with high fever in children.Doctor's answer:
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotics based on bacterial culture, or it can be combined with local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication, which are all effective. If the child has a sore throat, pain-relieving medication can be given as needed. Some children may also have a fever, in which case oral antipyretics can be administered. If symptoms do not improve, medical attention is necessary. If a child frequently experiences tonsillitis, it is recommended to consider surgery at an early stage. During treatment, it is important to maintain dietary hygiene and ensure adequate rest.
